Some of the job seekers she works with have been looking for new work for over a year, if not longer, she tells CNBC Make It: "The job market is ridiculous." By the numbers, the U.S. labor market is strong on paper with low unemployment and high job openings. To those on the job market, Doe has one big piece of advice: It "might be a little counterintuitive, but it's actually to step away from your computer." "You don't have to spend money" to have professionals review your resume, help you practice your networking and interviewing skills, or offer other career advice, Doe says.

One that stands out and that she hears time and again: "What is the company culture like?" It's an important assessment to make — company culture is a top priority for many workers — and "sometimes you will get a good answer," Doe says. She recalls once accepting an offer from a company that didn't elaborate on its culture. Brianna Doe Photo: Jessica JuniperThinking back on that experience, she realized she needed to reflect a bit more: "What is important to me in company culture? That means she didn't get basic information about the company or how her job contributed to its main priorities.

Black women make up less than 10% of the U.S. population, but they've emerged as the fastest-growing group of entrepreneurs, new research from GoDaddy has found. The number of Black women-owned businesses in the U.S. was trending upward even before the Covid-19 pandemic, which accelerated entrepreneurship overall. Between 2017 and 2020, the number of Black women-owned businesses increased by nearly 20%, far exceeding the growth of women-owned businesses and Black-owned businesses overall, the Brookings Institution reports. Ofodu's decision to leave Instagram reflects a larger trend of Black women ditching corporate jobs and flocking to entrepreneurship for more freedom, fulfillment and flexibility in their careers. "When I go to industry events, I'm still one of the few Black people or women in the room," says Frelow, 53.

This wasn't her first experience negotiating a job offer: She's managed to increase her salary by as much as $75,000 in past jobs. Instead, Doe used that question as an opportunity to first find out where the company stood on its hiring budget. But may I ask what salary range you have budgeted for this position?" Doe suggests the following script, which she's used in past interviews: "I'm currently interviewing for roles that range from XXX to XXX annually."

That conversation alone was enough motivation for Doe to start taking the job search more seriously, and re-think her approach to salary negotiation. Here's how she did it:A 'life-changing' job search hackBefore she applied to other marketing manager and director-level roles, Doe researched salaries for different marketing positions using a free, crowdsourced database published online by #HireBlack, a job search platform that offers career resources for Black women. Armed with research, Doe came up with a target salary range to guide her job search. She used the same market research and negotiation tactics she learned during her initial job search to land a $15,000 pay increase before accepting the role, which she started in March. (She doesn't want to publish her exact salary in case it's used against her in future negotiations.)

Other majors, like philosophy and anthropology, require a graduate degree and a specific role. PhilosophyPhilosophy is another niche degree that isn't much use outside the field if you don't pair it with a graduate degree. "I've run into hiring managers, colleagues, and friends who really struggle to communicate the value of that degree," Doe added. You might also need a graduate degree for some of those roles, such as professor, librarian, or lawyer.
